The Journal Folder plugin enhances folder-based journaling in Obsidian by allowing any folder in the vault to serve as a journal without special setup. Notes within designated folders are organized by daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly types based on a fixed filename format, enabling multiple independent journals in a single vault. It features automatic headers with links to related entries, customizable date patterns for note titles and links, and folder-level configuration options. This flexibility supports tailored journal structures, such as project-specific logs or general personal journals. Future planned features include a dedicated journal folder view with a calendar and task management.
The Theme by Folder plugin allows users to automatically switch themes based on the folder of the currently opened note. You can assign different visual themes to specific folders, enabling a more contextual and personalised workspace. It also supports a fallback theme when no folder match is found, ensuring a consistent appearance across the vault. The configuration is straightforward and accessible through a user-friendly settings panel. This lightweight plugin is ideal for those who manage diverse content types and want a visual cue or separation based on their vault's structure.
